    Can't be super sensitive at this level. That's his downfall. His mind is the issue. Can't pump fake that shit not like his pump fakes were good anyways. One of the worst I have seen

    This is truly awful. Hibbert looks like an All-Star against this Blazers.

    Has a coach ever been fired on a road trip?

    Can't come back relying on shots like this.

    Just dreadful shot quality.

    aminu and Harkles can't hit their threes, Crabbe has a bad game, Vonleh and Leonard give nothing.

    I'm just wondering what is going on in Allen and olsheys head. Surely they know this is unacceptable. Wish I knew their plan

    body language looks ok to me; just a bunch of guys who can't hit their shots.

    I'm starting to wonder if Terry makes it to the end of the season at this rate. Obviously that film session helped a lot.

    I prefer them taking shit shots than anybody else on the team to be honest. They are the only two guys that are starters on the squad. Other starters are role players

    Suggestion: empty the bench at the START of the fourth. Same result, but we wouldn't feel as depressed.

    LOL and this a team some people want to see in the playoffs? Last year the playoffs were okay because the team actually tried and cared. This team, nope.

    This. Allen should know...he's right there every night in Portland watching this.

    Something needs to happen. Period. Fire Stotts, fire Olshey, or make a big trade.

    I'm leaning towards firing Stotts though.
